Wanted beginner safe and kind

[QuillcoteFarm]

Iam looking for a horse for a young girl to replace to current horse she has, she has been overmounted. She is an advanced beginner, very dedicated, but not real strong.

Looking for something that is kind and willing, color doesnt matter, size, anything over 15.1. Doesn't matter mare or gelding, age under 15. I would like to find something like a QH, Paint, those real broke types. This horse would have a wonderful forever home.

Iam willing to travel a bit, Iam located in Ma. south of Boston.

Thanks guys!!!!

Hi, I can take a video to show you his current condition and I can also ask the barn to release his records so that you may talk to the vet about the most recent visit. I believe, that with a little maintenance, Buddy would be suitable.

Amanda what exactly are his problems with his hocks, its a bummer because everything else about him would be perfect! Does he currently have shoes on? Whatever you can send me I will be willing to take a look at. PM me if you would like! :winkgrin:

Sent you a PM, a know of a horse that would be perfect for a young girl. He is sound and the owner just does not have time for him.

The vet flexed him and he flexes quite positively on his right hock. He is ok at the walk and more off at the trot. He doesn't look like he is uncomfortable though. He is currently barefoot and is better with shoes on (or so I am told).

Sorry, I haven't been able to get organized to have a video made. I am still working on it though. Thanks,
Amanda

I know of a horse looking for his forever home. He's a real special guy and would love his own kid. What does the kid want to do with the horse?

He was a great Medal/Maclay horse, did it all, was then a school horse for a couple of years. He is around 15, probably 16.1ish, liver chestnut, built uphill. Breed unknown. When asked correctly, is still perfectly pleased to go big and round, but doesn't need to. He is great w/t/c/small jumps, and awesome on the trails (first, last, middle-doesn't matter). Did his first hunt this year and was a star out there as well.

He is located just west of Boston.
